Steve and family, I moved out of the Pittsburgh area in 1988, but have such fond memories of Sue in high school. She was always so sweet and always smiling, and so so funny!

I was extremely sorry to hear the news of Sue's passing. Her bright smile was always a joy to see. We shared a lot of great times at BHS. She was a great Captain. LOL My deepest sympathies to her family. God bless you all at this time and the times to come. Sue will be greatly missed by all she met through out her life. Love to you all, Kelly Mitchell Young

Steve, Lauren, and Shane: I've been gone so long that Sue will always be 19 in my memory. She had a glow-an aura, really-that in combination with her outer beauty made her seem like a heroine in an Irish poem or song. But we live in real life and when I read of the way she lived and the lives she touched, it is not surprising at all, not a bit, that that is who she was and that is how we will remember her. Whatever is next, she'll be fine. Peace and love, Edward Bronder, Brooklyn, NY, BHS '83

I would like to express my sympathy to all of the family. There are no words to say that can make your pain go away. Please know how special she was to so many. Beautiful inside and out. As other have said a Class Act in every way! I didn't grow up with Sue, but from the day I met her it felt as if we were friends right away. I have a wonderful memory and testament to Sue's goodness. When my daughter was born premature , she had many conditions when we brought her home. Somehow, Sue found out that I was unable to attend a family wedding and so she went and took a CPR course just so she could give me a chance to go to the church. Such a giving and loving person who I will never forget. May she rest in peace. With love Deena ( Chic ) Murphy

Sue was truly a special person and I feel lucky and proud to have been her friend. She just radiated light, goodness, energy, love, and compassion. Everyone wanted to be around Sue because she made us all be better versions of ourselves. At IUP Sue was so much fun to be around; but she also spent time routinely visiting an Indiana nursing home and ushering at the church! She was so kind and thoughtful too - for over 30 years she never missed sending me a birthday card...she was just that kind of person we all strive to be. I was lucky to attend Pitt with her too, and was honored to have her be part of our wedding. Sue just made everything she was a part of better. My sympathies go out to her whole extended family, and especially to Lauren and Shane - please know how beautiful and loved your mother was by everyone that knew her. Connie (Sutkowski) McGee

Dear Steve, Lauren and Shane: I met all of you at the Pitt Christmas Day Community dinner in 2018. Sue was so pleased to introduce you to me since she and I were both employees at Pitt and she and I were both battling cancer. She was a tremendous source of encouragement to me as I went through two surgeries and a very critical blood infection, even as she faced her own fight with this insidious disease. We would often meet in the morning at the Starbucks in the ground floor of the Cathedral and give each other words of encouragement before we started our work days. A treasured moment for me was the hug she gave me on the morning of my last day at Pitt before my retirement. She told me to "never give up hope!" She definitely walked the talked. My life was blessed by knowing her. Please accept my sincerest and deepest sympathy. The world has lost a class lady. Renny Clark

Steve & Family I am so very sorry for your loss. I havent seen you for a few years & my client told me her struggle. Praying for you & your children.I will continue to pray for strength & much comfort at this difficult time. So many beautiful words many expressed to you & she was beautiful! Take care of yourself & your family.Much love & prayers

Dear Steve and Family, I cannot imagine your loss. Sue was such a lovely and vivacious person. She will have the Angels laughing for sure. Please know my prayers are with you. Maureen (McCullough) Johnson

Steve and family, I am so sorry to hear this sad news. The thing I always remembered about Sue from our days at St. Sylvesters and BHS was that she was always smiling. She was so good natured. I trust she is smiling down on us now.

Steve and family, no words can express the lose you all must be feeling. My thoughts and prayers to you, may her memory be for a blessing....Rose Au

Sue was a true professional and pleasure to work with at Pitt. My deepest sympathy to her family.

Steve, Lauren, Shane, Mrs. Murray and the Murray and Gilbert families, There are no words that even come close to expressing the sadness that we all feel with the loss of your beautiful Sue. How lucky we were to have known and loved such a wonderful soul. She lived life with unwavering determination and strength. always with a sense of humor and that beautiful smile. She has taught us all that life and friendship is so precious and for that we are all grateful. The hole that her passing has left is undeniable, but the gift of knowing her and being a friend of hers will be something we cherish always. We pray that you will find some peace in knowing that you now have the most beautiful of angels looking after you all. She will forever be in our hearts and in our prayers. Rest in Peace sweet Sue and thank you for making our world a better place. You will never be forgotten. All our love, Kerry, Rick and Molly Huffman

Dear Steve, Lauren Shane May god bless you always. She's in the best place.........Heaven

I have so many treasured memories of the Murrays growing up from Halloween to Bethany Beach vacations. I truly grew up as an adopted Murray. Through college and life events, Sue always remembered the Englert and Walbrown Cousins. Her thoughtfulness always had a personal touch. She was a lovely person inside and out. Our prayers love and sympathy to all the Gilbert's, Murray's, Stanford's, Reckers, and Grieners. Love, Karen (Nanny), Joe, Molly, Matt, Landon, and Abby

Dear Murray and Gilbert Families: Our deepest sympathies to all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during these difficult times. May our Lord bless and comfort you. God Bless. --The Claherty Family

My thoughts and prayers to all of the Gilbert and Murray family. I can only imagine your heartbreak at losing this beautiful soul. Sending my love to all of you.

Steve ,Lauren and Shane, please know our heart felt sympathies are with you and all her friends and family. The amazing thing about Sue that I remember is her smile, down to earth manner and it was never about her, or giving up. She faced her illness matter of fact, and was on to the next frontier.. another degree or a game to cheer whomever on. Her absence will be difficult, because her presence was so profound. Our deepest sympathies, The Baldingers

My deepest condolences to the familyI remember Sue very well. Such a beauty. May God give you all peace and rest.

Susie was a BIG supporter of our GBU Operation Reach Out project where we send 1,000's of care-package boxes to overseas troops. She was very active in getting local Brentwood youth involved in the project. For many years she recruited lots of girls from the Baldwin Girls Basketball team to help us assemble the 1,000's of boxes. She will be remembered by many of us at GBU for her caring, sharing and participating nature. Susie was a class act for sure!

Steve and family sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers

My Deepest Sympathy For All Family And Friends. Sue was a Beautiful Person

Dear Steve, Lauren, Shane, the Murray family and all who knew and loved this beautiful soul. Our hearts are breaking for all of you and no words can take away the pain for you. What a beautiful tribute to her life. When I think of Sue, the first thing I see is her bright smile that lit up a room. Even though she was fighting this battle for so many years, she was always smiling and never complained. I have many memories of Sue from our St. Sylvester's days, visits to IUP, Brentwood High School and just sweet conversations when I'd run into her through the years. And oh, that sense of humor! My favorite memory was when she and the rest of her beloved friends were BHS cheerleaders and did a skit in the high school auditorium. For some reason, I always remember Sue's because it was so funny (Lance, Lance, drop your pants :)) I hope some of you remember that too and it brings a smile to your face like she did to all. May God Bless each and everyone of you through the tough days ahead. You will all be in my continued thoughts and prayers. May her memory be eternal and she rest in peace and let the perpetual light shine upon her. God Speed beautiful sweet Sue.. You are now in God's loving hands and pain free. Thanks for being such a light. Love always, Colleen Kerekes
